Another prime suspect for the cause of osteoarthritis.

Allergic to any foods?

I ask because research shows cases where osteoarthritis has been cured by ‘discovering’ allergies. How’s that for a simple remedy?

There are countless cases of severe arthritis disappearing completely by eliminating certain foods.

The worst offenders are: corn, wheat, yeast, soy, eggs and cow’s milk.

Other suspects include potatoe, tomatoe, eggplant and peppers.

Could they cause your arthritis? Find out – it’s not too difficult to watch what you eat.

Of course, most people love their food. But it’s very much like the decision the doctor gives you when ask for a hip or knee op for your arthritis: is the pain that bad? Because surgery isn’t fun.

So what I’m saying is if you can’t live without your wheat, eggs, milk and spuds, your arthritis can’t be that bad…for the moment.

Having experienced both osteoarthrits hip pain and a post operation pain, I can tell you from first hand experience, you want to delay surgery as long as possible…

For some it is drinking that causes their arthritis pain – but giving that up really is a depressing treatment or remedy for osteoarthritis. And besides, drink enough and your knee and hip pain melts away – well,  temporarily ;-)

Weight problems also are a cause of arthritis. It is not rocket science – carry too much weight and you are placing unnecessary pressure on your joints.

But the right diet doesn’t just keep excess weight off. It also improves the fluidity of synovial fluid – this helps lubricates the joints.

Foods and drinks like tea, coffee, alcohol and chocolate all reduce your bodies calcium levels. Naturally, this affects the health of the bone.

There’s more bad news though if, like me, you like your food.

Do you enjoy fried foods? Well, who doesn’t like fish and chips? Unfortunately they cause an abundance of free radicals – a natural product, but an excess of these damages the joints.

Many arthritis sufferers have a history of poor diet: too much sugar, stimulants (caffeine and alcohol) and fatty foods. Together, they are a strong force to bring on – or speed up – your arthritis.
